Introdução
Estudos apontam para a importância das TIC e da sua exploração na atualização de conhecimentos e redução do isolamento da pessoa idosa.
Destacam a importância da utilização da tecnologia como facilitadora do processo de comunicação, estimulando as relações interpessoais e promovendo o seu bem-estar e qualidade de vida.
Neste enquadramento, o projeto emerge num contexto virtual seguro, estimulando as capacidades cognitivas, psicoemocionais e sociais, respeitando a individualidade e a cultura da pessoa idosa.
Objetivos
Promover a socialização e o envelhecimento saudável dos utentes num contexto institucional, através do desenvolvimento de atividades com recurso aos meios telemáticos.
Metodologia
Trata-se de um estudo exploratório e descritivo, inscrito no paradigma qualitativo com uma orientação etnográfica, uma vez que procurou também compreender e ir ao encontro das dimensões socioculturais, dos comportamentos, rituais, saberes e práticas da população idosa.
A população é constituída por 83 pessoas idosas em contextos institucionais e por 26 voluntários, 20 estudantes e 6 professores.
As atividades têm uma periodicidade mensal, operacionalizadas em três sessões.
Resultados
A intervenção teve como finalidade desenvolver atividades promotoras da comunicação/relação entre as pessoas idosas e os voluntários, tendo-se desenvolvido 7 atividades, num total de 30 sessões.
Como principais resultados destaca-se o facto de as pessoas idosas referirem sentir-se bem e “info-incluídas” na companhia “virtual” dos voluntários, referindo que as atividades desenvolvidas foram apresentadas de forma acessível e originais quanto aos temas, indo ao encontro das suas expectativas.
